- Hi All,
Join me for a lesson on some important etiquette practices to have when having afternoon tea at a Hotel in London.
If you are interested in any of the china displayed on my table please see listings on the Fortnum & mason website where all of it is available for purchase.
Just watched this from start to end! What an amazing video from the production, the teaware aesthetics and your nature made this enjoyable enough to sit back and consume. I have only been to afternoon tea once at a hotel years ago it was a delight and I would love to go again. Keep them coming!
Thankyou Steph! It’s such a great thing to do for your birthday or any special occasion. Thanks for watching!
oh, so lovely, a wee opening into heaven.
So gracefully planned your videos are 🙏🏽
Thankyou so much !
Perfect timing, very enjoyable video. Looking forward to more afternoon tea content. Also your tea set collection. ❤
That’s great! Glad to hear you enjoyed. 🥰🫖☕️
Love a good tea tutorial. Very classy
Your kindness is deeply appreciated.
That’s your new fortnum and mason teaware it looks lovely. Thanks for the video
Yes I love it. Makes me feel elegant and like I’m having afternoon tea at a hotel but at home. Thanks for dropping by again! 🌺❤️
Lovely video. Just a small point when putting the jam and cream on the scone the scone should be left on the plate while applying cream and jam not held mid air. Beautiful crockery. ❤
Yes correct! That is the true eloquent way of handling a scone. I only just picked up on that very tip recently. Thanks for watching.
Elegant 😊
Such a lovely treat… love this video,everything looks beautiful.
Thanks Connie! I love my tea ☕️ ✨🌺 hope you had a nice weekend
Beautiful video and beautiful lady. Thank you I learned so much from this ❤
So happy you made this. Many people are confused about Afternoon tea vs "High tea" - just the opposite of what one would think; how to stir without clanging one's spoon, and the three tiers - what should be where and why. All about the palate. Rather than restricting, I think you've made this intimate event with friends even more enjoyable, the purpose of tea, after all.
Thankyou for your kind words, it is a common mix up but they could not be more different.
@@nikitaamerie please make some more like these. Thanks again.
I got a call this morning from Helen at the Grand Galvez Hotel in Galveston, Texas. It was to confirm my 4:00 pm this Saturday, November 30 2024, for high tea. I think of it as afternoon tea myself. It will cost $45 which seems good. It's the day after my 61st birthday and my first ever time to go to afternoon tea so I'm watching videos like this.
@GuyMorris-n4d good on you morris! I’m sure you will find it amusing if not entertaining 🤩
best afternoon tea etiquette ever!!! thankyou so much youre so lovely and relaxed with how you explain "rules"
Thankyou so much!!!
Thank you ❤ Very elegant and classy ❤
great content, will definitely try this
I love your fortnum and mason teaware, I live in the united states and can't get that tear, but maybe when I visit england one day, that set is in on my wishlist ❤
Oh Ashley! I think that is such a great reason to visit the uk for some of its exclusive teaware. I’m oringinally from Australia and I couldn’t find many brands over there without a big hassle. It will be amazing when you get to see fortnum and mason for the first time. It’s a jaw dropping experience. ✨🌹
@@nikitaamerie I can't wait to see all of the UK it is going to be amazing, I just love your channel so much ❤
I know this is a year old but actually it used to be you could order it online. I did do a couple of years ago.
Afternoon tea is my favorite
Love, and appreciate this video! Glad it showed up on my feed.
Thankyou very much gorgeous lady!
Thank you for sharing this amazing video , me and my husband are fun of having tea in a five star hotels and restaurant , anywhere in UK ,, I am glad I did what's on your video ... well done👍 cheers. 🥂
My pleasure, there’s so many places to have tea hope you have a good time!
from MYER - RUclips - your amazing with your knowledge, thank you for sharing n .. n
SO LOVELY!
Thank You
It's a very enjoyably video. Unfortunately, it's hard to find a decent loose tea leaves in US.
Thankyou! I had no idea that it was difficult, where do you usually shop for tea leaves? At markets, supermarkets, online?
@@nikitaamerie A good question, I usually looks for some small stores specializing in a food for specific regions, for example Iran.
@@kamertonaudiophileplayer847 My husband is Iranian. You can find lots of good tea in any Middle Eastern or "Mediterranean" store.
@@penelopepitstop762 Thanks for the tip.
Lovely video in many ways. However, when seated at a low table it might be more refined not to cross one’s knees as this puts the knees at table level and very much in view of other guests.
Yes!!!!❤❤❤❤
lol at the purse. I'll do that next time. ;D i was watching another video with an American. and nope, tea etiquette is best from a Brit who uses loose leaf tea! :)
Aw thank you haha! Love your comment 🤣
And what about the dress code? I am assuming that there will be limitations to what to wear, depending on locations, and what not to wear. Like to short skirt or dress, very open decolletage etc.
Yes I do briefly touch on what to wear and what is not very acceptable.
Sorry to sound picky but the scone shouldn’t have the cream and jam applied to it in mid air. The scone stays on the plate while you spread the jam and cream.
As a female I have been collecting bags since I was 18 years old
CAN YOU PLEASE POST THE LINK FOR YOUR OUTFITS IN YOUR VIDEOS? THANKS
I don’t post them usually because nobody asks for them, this is a self portrait dress for your information, hope that is useful.
@@nikitaamerie you wear very glamorous and chic outfits. I love to wear dresses and I feel inspired by your wardrobe. 😊 next week I am looking forward to have afternoon tea at the Ritz Hotel and I am looking for a dress for the occasion but since it's winter time, I must take into consideration the weather too.
@Julie-hf4ch why thankyou, that’s very kind. Well I’d still wear something similar just with tights, a warm scalf and a long coat. I hope you enjoy the ritz, it’s a lovely hotel.
I think once you order champagne with it, it is now called Royal Tea not Afternoon tea? I’m not sure!
Correct, you would usually start with one glass and then they will bring out the proceeding hot tea once you are done but it’s not really a huge part or afternoon tea just the beginning.
Oh sorry I mentioned that before a few months ago I forgot I watched video before 😂😂
im not a ma'me im a sir thanks
What?
cutlery, not utensils
Nice, but rather "sexist". Actually, I deplore the sexist junk and all WOKE silliness. But, if I made this nice video and only included men's attire...oh, my!!
Well from a perspective of a women this is what I can relate to however for a male you could also wear a blazer to afternoon tea with a shirt and trousers, hope that helps!
@@nikitaamerie Hi, and how very kind of you. I plan to take a really nice blazer. Not taking much on this trip, so a nice pair of jeans and nice shirt will have to do it. I think it will be fine, but it won't look as great as you!
@josephcollins6033 I hope you have a wonderful time. Afternoon tea is so enjoyable!
@@nikitaamerie 😘😘
